Speaking of small robots. The 2014 rules called for a 112 in frame perimeter. That was the year of the Frisbee. One of the better games by most opinions.

I noticed this, too. There will be a LOT of balls on the field, so a low profile robot will be beneficial in navigating through all the balls. Our team will likely have bumpers as low as possible. An added benefit of low profile is more volume up top to use for storage, etc. Vince |

Was anyone else surprised by the size of the fuel? A 5in wiffle ball is pretty big.

Mounting all the large electronics vertically and grouping by power and control sections is how we freed up most of our space. RoboRio, radio, signal light, and VRM went on one side of the bot, battery, PDP, and main breaker went on the other. All were mounted on vertical boards from the chassis bottom to our top frame rails, so 7"-8" of space. |

Re: New size/bumper rules that every team should know
Very frustrated with FIRST right now. We choose to get the Andmark base kit with our kit of parts. If we try and use volume choice B with the 36" height we cannot use the andymark kit. Basically it invalidates a $450 part. Look at the wheel spacing, size of wheels, and gear belts and the locations for pre drilled holes. Unless I am incorrect the only sizing you can use and make that chase kit work is Volume A
